Get this. Don't ask questions, just do it. Seriously, it's a great mag, probably their best ever. It comes with a free 2003 calendar, a new preplay section (featuring a 7 page look at Metroid Prime), a 'Games Of 2003' feature and more. Plus, there's no review shorter than half a page. Anyway, the review scores were:

----------
James Bond 007: Nightfire - 8/10.
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2003 - 8/10.
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets - 7/10.
Wreckless: The Yakuza Missions - 7/10.
BMX XXX - 7/10.
Reign of Fire - 6/10.
Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly - 6/10.
-----
Metroid Fusion - 9/10.
Doom II - 8/10.
The Powerpuff Girls: Him and Seek - 8/10.
FIFA 2003 - 7/10.
Worms Blast - 7/10.
Robotech: The Macross Saga - 7/10.
Disney's Tarzan: Return to the Jungle - 7/10.
The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers - 6/10.
Shrek: Hassle at the Castle - 6/10.
Black Belt Challenge - 6/10.
Inspector Gadget Racing - 4/10.
-----

The only problem is they only focus on hugely popular games. Take Sega Soccer Slam, got a 3 review (or at least that's what it seemed like) but games like Metroid get 7 page reviews.

It's rubbish because it just gives you the bare facts with no humour and no opinion, which is really why you buy the magazine, to see other people's opinions on games.

Most of it's taken up by pictures.

I can write better reviews than those bum-faced gibbons.
